Messages for Web Pairing Error

[PHugger]

I have set this up successfully on several PCs and several browsers, but.......

Surface Pro 3 running Edge Browser -
When I go to messages.android.com I get a "Pairing Error - try again"



Does anyone have any ideas about this error?

Best regards,
PCH

Try using the Google Chrome browser.
One of my computers is a Surface Pro 3.
Google Chrome on the Surface Pro 3 pairs with no problem.

The issue has to do with pairing with Edge. I started getting the error a few days ago. It pairs fine on Firefox and Chrome.

As I said I've already successfully done this on several other PCs and browsers (Firefox and Chrome). I'm trying to do this on my tablet with Edge - neither Chrome nor Firefox are very finger friendly. Your comment about it just starting recently leads me to believe that this is another case of Google jabbing at Microsoft. I really wish this would stop.



Best regards and thank you,

I get the same error when using Chrome via my laptop.

Got the same thing on my SP3 using Edge. I much prefer an app on my computer that is stable, rather than relying on "pairing" ... so I've gone back to Verizon Messages+, which works VERY well on phone AND computer.

I am also getting the error using Chrome as the browser, issue is not limited to Edge. In addition to Chrome, I also tried Firefox and had the same issue. I also tried using a Chrome Incognito window and got the same error
